    I don't truly expect anyone to care about this, but I just got the most wonderful unexpected surprise: My Grandma just paid off my dress! My aunt had purchased it for me, and I was making payments to her, and when I went to give her a check yesterday she told me my Grandma had given her the money for it! How friggin sweet is that? I am so lucky sometimes...

    wow, that is such a blessing!

    doesn't it feel like such a burdern has been lifted off your shoulders?

    my FMIL recently did something like that for my FI and I, and it was so amazing. Grateful does not even begin to describe the way that we felt!

    Congratulations, and yes, you are a lucky girl!

    That's sweet! I just got an unexpected check in the mail this week from my grandmother for my dress. Surprises are fabulous, aren't they?

    Yaaaay. That's so sweet! My grandmother told me a few weeks ago that she would like to pay for my dress. I was so surprised/grateful/happy that I was almost in tears.

    Grandmas are the best!
